Title: Procede et appareil non invasifs permettant de traiter l'hypotension orthostatique
Inventor: MCLEOD KENNETH J
IPC: A61H23/00
Filed: 2002-10-09
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil non invasifs permettant de traiter l'hypotension orthostatique et de réduire ses effets. On obtient une augmentation de l'écoulement sanguin et fluidique dans les extrémités inférieures en faisant vibrer la partie inférieure du corps d'un individu à une fréquence située dans la plage comprise entre 10 et 120Hz. Ledit appareil comprend une sangle à fixer à une partie des extrémités inférieures du corps de l'individu, par exemple à la base du pied, et un capteur de mouvement détectant un mouvement quelconque de ladite partie de corps. Ledit capteur de mouvement envoie en continu des signaux à un processeur indiquant s'il y a un mouvement quelconque de la partie de corps. Lorsque le capteur de mouvement ne détecte pas de mouvement sensible de la partie de corps pendant une durée prédéterminée, le processeur envoie un signal à un mécanisme de vibration. Le signal active le mécanisme de vibration et produit une vibration de la partie de corps entraînant l'augmentation de l'écoulement sanguin et fluidique dans les extrémités inférieures. Le mécanisme de vibration produit une vibration pendant une durée prédéterminée.

Abstract: A patient care apparatus and method where the apparatus has an audible sound
producing device (40) that sounds an audible alarm when a particular alarm condition is
sensed with respect to a patient or the apparatus itself. The apparatus includes a non-hand
contact alarm silence switch (42) that can be activated to silence the audible alarm.

provider that would be expected to remain in sterile conditions. Various technologies can
be used for the non-hand contact alarm silence switch including proximity sensing, optical
sensing, temperature sensing, air pressure sensing or voice command, any one of which
can activate the switch without the need to make physical contact of the alarm silence
switch (42) by a person or object. In one embodiment, the apparatus has a foot-operated
alarm silence switch (43).
